[SLUG] sendmail

I have a shell script running on my RH 8.0 box that checks for entries
in a directory and then updates another file with on those entries. I
presently send and email using sendmail announcing that an update has
occurred. I store the number of entries in a variable called num. How
can I put that number in the email so that it says <num> of entries have
been added to the file, and not just that and update has occurred.
Everything I have tried has not worked and only the variable name
appears.
